Make your Electoral College Prediction!!!
Okay, let's see who can get closest to the final electoral vote tally. Here is Mulders prediction (and I'm being cautious I think there is a good chance for Bush to pull 300) :

Bush - 287
Kerry -251

There are a total of 538 and a candidate needs 270 to win.

Here is where you can research the current projections as to whcih states are clearly Bush and Kerry, the leaners, the toss-ups, etc.
